Many people are looking to improve their health by eliminating wheat, corn, and/or dairy from their diets. I have been experimenting with recipes that are free of wheat, corn, and dairy for several years. I've created "Ideal Ingredients" to share not only what I have learned, but also to share a delicious and healthy way of eating!
Special Note: If you are also avoiding eggs, you may substitute the following for 1 egg in my baked goods recipes.
1 egg = 1/3 cup applesauce OR 1/4 cup mashed banana OR 1 T ground flaxseed + 3 T water

Oatmeal Protein Waffles
I've been wanting a new waffle iron ever since my old one died last year. And, lucky for me, my mom gave me a great Belgian waffle iron for my birthday. I love home-made waffles in the morning (or in the evening for that matter!)
I devised this recipe this morning for breakfast. Oatmeal is a great source of protein, fiber, and minerals such as manganese and selenium. Brown rice flour provides vitamin B6 and niacin. For an added boast, add the scoop of protein powder.
Ingredients
1 cup whole oats
3/4 cup brown rice flour
1 T rice protein powder (optional)
1 t cream of tartar
1 t baking soda
1 1/4 cups unsweetened coconut or almond milk
1 egg
4 T canola oil
1 T honey
Directions
Preheat Belgian waffle iron.
Whisk milk, egg, oil, and honey in bowl. Add oats to milk mixture and allow to sit for 5 minutes. In a separate bowl, mix flour, protein powder, cream of tartar, and baking soda. Add to wet ingredients and blend well.
Using a 2/3 cup measuring cup, pour waffle batter on to waffle iron. Cook according to directions.
Add a drizzle of pure maple syrup for extra sweetness. Serve with fresh melon and berries.
Makes 4 Belgian waffles.
